Summary/Abstract: In contemporary architectural practice, the architect’s role is in the process of renegotiation, in the sense of their direct and active involvement in computational design and digital fabrication. The use of digital tools enables designers to apply their knowledge and to re-establish their interdisciplinary credentials. Architects have started to actively develop their own design culture by customising working technology as part of their professional practice.
